What Is Silt?

Silt is a heavy material that sinks and collects at the bottom of drain or sewer pipes. If it is not extracted regularly, it will solidify into a rock-like substance, partially blocking the pipe and reducing the flow capacity of the system.


With extreme rainfall becoming more commonplace, regular desilting for drains and sewers is essential to avoid flooding on your premises.


How Does Desilting Work?


The desilting process works by using high-pressure water jets to break up the silt and force it to the next downstream manhole, along with any other debris. From there, the matter is vacuumed out into the jet vacuumation tanker, before being disposed of responsibly.

When Is Desilting for Drains and Sewers Required?

Desilting and cleansing are important for keeping sewers, pipes, drains and gullies in good condition. It is a process that needs to be carried out on a regular basis.


This is particularly important for maintaining highways, because it reduces the risk of flooding in wet weather, which can make driving dangerous.


Regular sewer inspection using our state-of-the-art CCTV sewer cameras can identify any decay, structural defects, water ingress or egress as well as any silt build-ups.
